Amazing drawings

Stumbled upon this site: http://zindy.zone.dk/html/drawings/drawings.php

It's all a bit girly but she has amazing drawing skills. Especially check out the stars section. They're drawings of celebrities. Real quality work.

Now all she needs to do is extend her skills beyond the female figure and abstract paintings. :icon14:

There are gypsies in the subway who draws that kind of shit for the tourists here.

Yep. Technically decent, but booooooooring.....

Some of the paintings are quite nice though. I think she works better when she isn't so celebrity obsessed.

Yeah exactly. That's why I said girly. She's really into these girly role model celebs which detract from her skill.

And even if gypsies in the subway can do this, I cannot, and I'll never be able to, and thus I am impressed with the display of skill here.

But that's not a good reason to be impressed imo.

I can't speak marrocan, but i'm not impressed when a maroccan can.

hm, if she'd been a lot younger i'd have been impressed. these are certainly technically competent but lack life

exactly what i thought. she's good with copying stuff from fotos but there's nothing to her drawings besides technique.

She does really well with eyes and hair, those are the parts I always had trouble getting right in school.

Lots of technical skills - the Christina Aguilera28 one is awesome - but she needs to grow out of the fairy-wing obsession.

I was a lot like that too when I was drawing back in the day. Lot of good technical reproducing skills but very little originality... Only so much you can do in pencil though.

of course its a good reason to be impressed. granted, its also not the only reason to be impressed, but still. from that line there it makes it sound like theres a direct correlation between being impressed and what one cannot do, but i think theres more to eraser being impressed than just that. drawing well is a special talent. even if some gypsies can do it, doesnt mean that its not unique; which i think is a criteria for whats impressive.

if everyone drew van gogh paintings, would you be impressed with every one of them?

that being said, i like this girl's drawings. they look nice.

Since we're talking about art, you need to see to the subject matter too, technical brilliance is pretty much irrelevant IMO. It's just like a musician, he can be brilliant and technically superior to his peers, but as long as he plays shit music I will still respect and be more impressed by someone who instead writes great songs but perhaps is not as technically competent.

Yes, impressiveness lies in the eye of the beholder. Technique, uniqueness, these are all subject to err.. well your own viewpoints, as it were.

I bet you who like that girl's drawings like this guy too.

I'm serious dude, I'm a pretty talented guy. I can draw just as well as she can it's not even that hard. Plus, I can do it with a bic pen.
